Default Any Michellin Dealers Out There

After rotating I discovered some MAJOR dry rot on the sidewalls. I rotate religiously and always noticed some minor dry rot. For some reason its really got bad enough where I'm not taking chances for an 800 mile trip. Its strange where 2 of the 6 tires have no evidence of dry rot. Those 2 good tires where on the rear outer's. Anyone have a source for good pricing ?

I'm going to guess that you have a dually, and probably
235/85R16's, If you are going to stay with Michelin's the
the LTX M/S are around $155.00 per tire, the A/T's are $165.00, freight would be about ten dollars per tire and would take 2 to 3 day's to get them to ya. Check with your locals and see if I can save you any money or not, also add in having to pay to get them mounted and balanced. I see that your in the Trucking business,, we inventory 10 thousand Truck Tires as well,, hint, hint,,,, check it out then call me if I can help 800-231-2295 ext# 129

That's the same truck I have, except mine has 170K, If your wanting a Hwy the LTX A/S or LTX M/S is the way to go. We have alot of options to choose from if you don't want to go back with the high priced Michelins. 35k,,,dam do you only drive it on Sunday's?
